“Today the Manchester Employment Tribunal upheld the majority of my claim against Manchester City Football Club for unpaid wages, finding that they had unlawfully made deductions from my wages for a total period of 16 months and 23 days, we can read in a message published by the 2018 world champion on his social networks.

Mendy unwanted in Lorient
Recruited by Manchester City for 57 million euros from Monaco, 7 years later it's much more complicated for Benjamin Mendy to find a club. Today the left back is very close to the end of his career, in particular because of his 2-year hiatus linked to accusations of rape and sexual assault, of which he was acquitted last summer. Scolded since his arrival at Lorient last year, the supporters will perhaps finally win their case.
Indeed, according to Foot Mercato, the former French international did not participate in the resumption with his club this summer, and the opportunities are increasingly reduced. Laurent Koscielny, recently promoted to the sports management of Lorient, spoke on the subject at the microphone of Ouest-France: “ For Ben (Mendy), it was a gamble and the marriage was only half donejudged the former French international. I don't see him playing in Ligue 2 and here. I think he has other desires regarding that. So from the beginning, the door has been open for Ben. There are still some open markets, such as Turkey and Greece. Today he didn't find it. What if he doesn't find it? We will try to find the best solution. “, said the former Gunners.
